This week was a tough one. Everywhere I started Jalen Hurts, I won. But one league where I did not have Hurts, Davante Adams had a monster huge week in PPR. Ultimately, I have to give them both the Player of the Week Award.
Let’s start with Jalen Hurts: 380 pass yards, 3 pass td’s, 12 rush yards, 1 rush td. Over 34 fantasy points. Once again, Hurts proves he can beat you with his arm or his legs. Pick your poison!
On my only team where I had both Davante Adams and Jalen Hurts, it was half PPR, and Hurts beat Adams by 34.4 to 33.7. But where I had Adams in PPR, he was a beast: 37.7 points. Regardless, Adams had a great day: 8 catches, 177 yards, 2 td’s. Justin who? Adams is still the best WR in the NFL.
Cheer up buddy! You only need about 42 points from Rachaad White. His best game this season has been…15. If you talk the commish into converting the league to a PPR format, you could have…20. Sadly, that would help me more than you, since my team has 32 receptions and your team only has 25. Sorry.
6 TDs + XP add up to 42 points, not 54. No FGs either. What the hell happened there?? Gotta watch the “game in 40” later on, though I’m not sure I want to find out.
Edit: ah, I see. He missed the XP on another TD (thanks for nothing, Maher ), and I guess they unsuccessfully went for 2 once.
I will still lead you by 100+ points in the “points for” category after this week. That you are by far the team with the fewest “points against” helped you getting into the playoffs. It won’t help you in the playoffs, though.
Oh God where to start. Philadelphia receivers did some good work for me and that’s about it.
Special thanks to Zay Jones for having a horrible game. Thought I may have been on to something sneaky. And to the Cleveland defense that I dropped on Saturday. Thanks!!! Now I sit 10 pts ahead with my opponent playing New Orleans tonight. So I need Brady and company to go off, but not so much that I loose in the south beach league. Fun times.
